The history of Native American is a sensitive and tragic topic knowing that the majority of tribes are extinct. This leaves the world with a tough time trying to find the origins of the drama. First off, in order to be an artist in some of these communities they must go through a process that trains them in the art. They deliver a consistent art form that the show the community’s beliefs. There is also an emphasis on aesthetic traditions within the theatre but also open to some new ideas. Native American theatre has some key moments that differ from European theatre specifically in the way some dramatic events have an eternal reality. They have a “scared metaphysical substratum” has described by the author. Shamanism is a powerful point that multiple cultures have. Some cultures display their artform differently such as the Navajo group sing, the Plains Suns dance, and the Iroqouis have false face dramas. Fast forward to modern times, Native American theatre really took off in the 70’s with the Native American Theatre Ensemble. They have helped Indians try to keep the dramatic traditions alive.
